7-6 CHAPTER 7: TROUBLESHOOTING
Group 2 DiagnosticThe Group 2 diagnostic (Adapter Wrap Test) is a wrap test
that causes all user-transmitted data to be sent and received
without going to the network.
A lobe cable must be connected from the selected adapter to
a retiming concentrator or MAU for all tests. A lobe cable is
the section of cable that attaches a ring station or network
device to a MAU or wiring hub.
Running the Diagnostic TestsThe Configuration and Diagnostic Program can be started
from the menus or the DOS command line. For command
line instructions, see the INSTRUCT.TXT file in the \DIAG
subdirectory on the TokenDisk diskette.
If you have already installed the network driver, you need to
reboot and press [F5] or use a DOS diskette to bypass the drivers
before you run the diagnostic program. Use a DOS diskette if you
are running DOS 5.0 or earlier. If you are running Windows NT,
boot the DOS partition or boot from a DOS diskette to run the
diagnostic program. If you are running Windows 95, exit
Windows 95 and restart the PC in MS-DOS mode.
These instructions assume that the TokenDisk diskette is in
the floppy drive that is active.
